Long story short, I purchased a BLUE and GREEN "competition" set of sticks for my CAPCOM cab... they came with BLUE and GREEN dust covers. After realizing the GREEN looked like ass I decided to go with RED. Instead of waiting for ever and a day for LIZARD LICK to ship me a RED IL stick, I ordered a RED HAPP Competition stick from Tornado Terrys. They use the exact same handle... unfortunately, I found out when I received them that the HAPP Comp sticks come with BLACK dust covers. So I have a BLUE stick with BLUE dust cover and a RED stick with a BLACK dust cover now.
I have two options: Go with black dust covers on both or find a red dust cover. I'd rather find a red dust cover.
Does anyone have a spare red dust cover for a COMPETITION/IL type stick?

Are the dust washers under the cp? If so then it wouldn't need to be perfectly cut and you could probably just do it yourself if you've got a Tap Plastics or similar out there. Funny you mention that because I was thinking of doing just what I'm suggesting for my DK last night. The one I got from prok is very nice, but the hole for the joystick shaft is a tad oversized and since I'm kind of AR, I was thinking of making my own to get a tighter fit. :)

Did you ask Franco if he could make you one?

Good call - get some nice metal ones done to match, or alternatively just spray the existing dust cover with a plastic-based spay like plasti-kote (http://www.diy.com/diy/jsp/bq/nav.jsp?action=detail&fh_secondid=9253990&ecamp=trf-005&CAWELAID=266948658), which is available in loads of colours.

Hmmm.....that's funny. That was my first reply, but somehow I must've messed up and it didn't get posted.
